Storms were cooking up to the west and it was very windy. I crested the drop off down to the valley to a strange sight--the valley floor looked like a stormy ocean, crashing waves and all, as far as the eye could see. I slowed down but continued west. As I got nearer I saw that it was tumbling tumbleweeds, a veritable sea of them. I tried driving through them, it was nightmarish. Tumbleweeds stuck in my grill, stuck under the car, stuck everywhere. My car must have looked like a giant porcupine. Tumbleweeds make a terrible sound when they're dragged under a vehicle. I finally broke through after several miles, had to get out and pull them off and out from under the car. One of the strangest things I ever saw.Darrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316091005058053074noreply@blogger.com
